2.4 Serial Ports (COM1~COM6)
AIMB-214 supports six serial ports. 1 of RS-232/422/485 is for COM3 and COM6; 5
of RS-232 are for COM1, COM2, COM4, COM5 and COM6. The user can use
JSETCOM2 to select among RS 232/422/485 modes for COM2. These ports can
connect to serial devices, such as a mouse or a printer, or to a communications net-
work.
The IRQ and address ranges for both ports are fixed. However, if you want to disable
the port or change these parameters later, you can do this in the system BIOS setup.
Different devices implement the RS-232/422/485 standards in different ways. If you
should happen to have problems with a serial device, be sure to check the pin
assignments for the connector.
